I'm Anne-Marie and I love what I do! As a grief support and loss counseling specialist, I get the honor of sharing people's hearts and guiding them on a journey of healing by freeing them from the pain and the hold loss has had on their life - often without them even realizing it. They don't like where they are.
Together, we can bring hope and comfort to the hurting with christian grief counseling. This free church grief workshop will give you everything you need to understand and meet the needs of the brokenhearted in your community. The pain of losing a loved one can take years to fade, and those stages of grief are often misunderstood.
My greatest honor is to take a hurting heart and guide them on a journey of grief support and healing after loss. Even though the specific steps I teach them are the same for everyone, my approach is unique to each client as their grief and loss is like noone else's. I don't see you where you are. I see you where I know you can be and together, we will get you there.

On page 43 of my book, When Their World Stops: The Essential Guide to Truly Helping Anyone in Grief, I mentioned that the Blanket of Comfort a friend made for me was the best gift I could have ever received. I actually slept with it for 3 years! I have since learned how to make a blanket of comfort myself and given many of them out to hurting people and they are always very well received.

I gave myself the gift of The Grief Recovery Program and after doing the work, the weight of my losses has lessened. This program taught me that examining my relationships and giving myself permission to feel my emotions is central to moving through my losses. With Anne-Marie's help, I have a new way of processing losses that are inevitable in a fully lived life. Wishing much peace and love to all.

Attending the Grief Recovery therapy has helped me tremendously, I lost my 19yr old son to suicide last September, it has been the most emotionally painful experience in my life. The group work that I did in the six weeks with Ann-Marie and Ron has given me much relief from the extreme pain of loss and has allowed me to also discover other losses in my past that I am continuing to process. My hope is to have freedom from past trauma and its effects on me. I have tried other therapy through the years and have never found anything that really worked to process the pain of trauma. I am learning that

Finding refuge while navigating through the daunting journey of grief is crucial and yet so hard to find. From my first meeting with Anne-Marie, the middle, and to the end I felt safe. I felt seen and I felt heard. The support exceeded my expectations during the process while allowing me the space to fully trust I could be all in on healing. I recommend this to anyone seeking to love themselves deeper. I was surprised to have gained so many tools that I will forever carry with me into my future. Overall this was a life changing gift to myself that I would strongly encourage for others. No regrets

I did not believe I needed "grief healing". I have found healing in the past through wonderful counselors, retreats, and church programs. But I couldn't quite lift off a very heavy weight.
I happened to meet Anne-Marie in person and within 5 minutes of talking to her, I found myself weeping. I did not understand why.
After going through her multi-week program virtually during COVID-19, I now understand.
If you let yourself embrace the process fully, diving deep into what has driven you to grieve, her process is surgical. It required a depth of exploring and communicating specific losses that

I can't say enough positive things about my experience. it is an investment in time yes, but ultimately a long-term investment in yourself. I felt that I received personalized and individualized attention from Anne-Marie and really and truly received the tools and guidance that I needed to move forward. I highly recommend this service if you are struggling with grief and loss in your life.

Anne Marie is the expert you never wanted to need, but grateful to have when you do. In my small business, an employee had a ruptured aneurysm and within 24 hours had passed. It was both a professional and personal shock to myself and my staff as he was both a team leader and a dear friend to us all.
Within a week Anne Marie was in our office to meet with myself and my staff to help us process the shock of our sudden loss and coach us in how we can support each other as a team. While nothing could have prepared us for this loss, I'll forever be grateful for the ways Anne Marie was able to bring

I have had the opportunity to work with Anne-Marie in various capacities as a teacher to her in our trauma and attachment certification program; as a participant learning about the grief and loss model she uses; and as a participant personally working through the grief and loss model. I highly recommend her as a skilled and engaging presenter grief and loss model she uses and as a participant working and as a kind authentic healer! The grief and loss model that she uses helps people to form meaning of their experiences and to step into and fully feel what they have been holding in their bodies

Working through the Grief Recovery Method with Anne-Marie was such a healing experience! Her own personal experience with grief gave her the ability to relate to me in my deepest pain, and she was full of wisdom to pass on to help me heal as well. Anne-Marie is so warm and encouraging, and you can tell she genuinely cares about you, so each session with her literally felt like it was done with a dear friend and made me feel very comfortable opening up to her. Her scheduling is flexible and anytime I emailed with a question she replied within a couple hours. I cannot recommend her highly enough
